10.3 LCD Message CodesThese message codes display on the device's LCD.Message SolutionBAD EE System Error. A system error typically represents a failure of the EE PROM. Contact the factory for replacement.EC XX The XX refers to the Modbus register 8 message code shown in Modbus Message Codes for Register 8 on page78. The LCD displays the message code in decimal; host-controlled systems read the message codes in hex.DX80 display shows *ERROR: The Gateway uses fully-acknowledged polling to ensure each Node radio link isrobust. If a prescribed number of sequential polling cycles are not acknowledged by a Node, the Gateway considersthe radio link with that Node to be timed out. All outputs on the Node in question are set to the user-selecteddefault state or the output holds its last state, depending on user configuration options set using the UserConfiguration Tool. If the Node’s radio link recovers and the Gateway or GatewayPro determines enoughacknowledged polling messages have accumulated, the link is reinstated.EC 53 Radio Device (polling/heartbeat) Timeout. (Decimal value 13569.) A Node dropped out of the wireless networkbased on the parameters defined for polling or heartbeat. For more information, see Message Code 35 in ModbusMessage Codes for Register 8 on page 78.EC 54 Modbus time-out. A Gateway timeout (time of inactivity on the serial channel) was detected. For more information,see Message Code 36 in Modbus Message Codes for Register 8 on page 78.No LCD All DX80s display “POWER” on the LCD for the first 5 to 10 seconds after applying power. A Gateway's LED 1 issolid green when power is connected. Nodes flash a red LED 2 every 3 seconds or a green LED 1 every seconddepending on the radio link status.• Battery-powered devices turn off the LCD after 15 minutes (factory default). Push any button to reactivatethe LCD. Battery-powered devices may be in storage mode. To put battery powered devices into storagemode, hold button 1 for 5 seconds. To return from storage mode, hold button 1 for 5 seconds.• Recheck the power connections and power requirements. Battery-powered devices require 3.6 to 5.5 V dc.Non-battery powered devices require 10 to 30 V dc.• After replacing the battery, allow up to sixty seconds for the device to power up.10.3.1 Modbus Message Codes for Register 8Register I/O 8 is reserved for device messages or Site Survey data when in Site Survey mode.Conditions are detected as they occur and are reported to the Gateway. After the message is sent to the Gateway, theNode does not resend the message until the condition changes or there is a higher priority message. The higher themessage code, the higher the priority. For more information about how Site Survey data is stored in registers 7 and 8,refer to Conducting a Site Survey (Gateway and Nodes) on page 17.The following are the Modbus message codes, shown in hex, that may appear on the SureCross devices' I/O 8 Modbusregister.Message Code[15:8]Data Field [7:0] Description00 80 Normal operation. Device message register contents 0x0080 indicate the Node is synchronizedto the Gateway. (Decimal value 128.) A value of zero (0) indicates there is no device present.01 00-FF Unknown message. The message was received correctly (correct checksum), but it is not arecognized command. This type of message is usually caused by devices with poor radio linksor collocated networks that are not uniquely separated by binding codes and Network IDs.Network performance is not affected. (Decimal values 256 through 511.)35 01 Radio Device (polling/heartbeat) Timeout. (Decimal value 13569.) A Node dropped out of thewireless network based on the polling or heartbeat parameters. Refer to the User ConfigurationTool documentation for polling or heartbeat parameters and the timeout operation. When theleast significant bit is on (1), an error condition exists.• Run a site survey to determine the quality of the radio link. If no communication existsbetween the Gateway and Node, verify the power at the Node and all antennaconnections. Blocked radio communications may also be a result of recently changedenvironmental conditions.• Replace the battery of a battery-powered Node. Although the LCD and device mayappear functional, the battery may not have enough capacity to handle radiocommunication.36 01 Modbus time-out. A Gateway timeout (inactivity on the serial channel) was detected. (Decimalvalue 13825.) When the least significant bit is on (1), an error condition exists.FE -- Modbus register 8 device messages are disabled. The Modbus register 8 clears or disablesmessages using the Gateway’s Modbus register 15.
